What were you trying to do?

I was trying to use the graph in the colorlookup node however the mouse pointer is offset from what's selected in the graph so i have to click in a different location to where it should select. It's incredibly tricky to adjust colour values this way.

I tried this on a windows machine and did not have this issue. Have tried restarting natron / computer and the issue still persists.

Let me know if you need any more info.

Thanks,

What did you expect to happen? What happened instead?

Step-by-step reproduction instructions

1. Start Natron
2. Tab ColorLookUp Node
3. Try to click and move the cursor in the graph

Additional details

This issue does not happen in a windows machine

Probably a hidpi issue? Does it work if scaling 100%?

Also note that the Qt5 version of Natron still has some UI issues compared to older versions (Qt4).

I tried zooming in and out of the graph if that's what you mean and still have the problem. Is this what you meant by scaling being 100%?

Do you think it's worth downloading an older version of natron?

[rodlie]

No, I meant display/monitor scaling.

My theory is that we don't offset position X/Y with the current dpi value (or do it wrong).

[m-a-l-a]

Ah right I see - I tried different monitor resolutions and it doesn't help.

Do you think using an external monitor would fix this?

[rodlie]

Thanks for testing. Hmm, might be something else. I can test on a Mac tomorrow.

Do you think using an external monitor would fix this?

If 100% scaling on your primary monitor don't work it will probably not work on other monitors.

Ok thanks! Makes sense
